SLUMBER PARTY

May 18, 2007 18:41

Claire and Violet had shoved the furniture around in the rec room and set up the projector. There was a table with snacks and sandwiches, and Claire would have given her favorite bear for some cola. There was a make up case and some hair brushes, and some glitter covered decorations...just in case anyone could mistake the teen-girl-ambiance that ( Read more... )

Meet friends, make new ones.

Claire couldn't quit smiling. She was waaay too excited about the whole thing, and hoped she'd explained it okay to everyone she'd talked to. It'd suck if no one showed up at all.

There was no way that'd happen, though. Not with music and food and everything just right. This would be a blast.

Violet bit her lip, and didn't even realise she was pacing. More then pacing, really, she was hovering.

She didn't know what to do or say or where to put her hands, and it was highly disconcerting and making her flail like nothing else. "What should I be doing?" It was the third time she'd asked Claire that today, and she finally stopped pacing to look at her friend. "... I mean, I should be doing something, right?"

Re: Getting to Know You unbreakableteen May 19 2007, 00:45:29 UTC

"You're fine, Violet. Just...chill. Pretty soon it'll be crowded."

She hoped.

"But, I just-" Violet's voice dropped to a whisper. "I... I don't do this. Normally." She swallowed, knowing that not having friends- Well, she'd not been an idiot, for all that she wasn't really used to having the social life of a normal girl.

She'd learned at Prufactory Prep that lacking friends was a social death sentence, sometimes. Or a literal one, as the case may be.

"You do now!" she chirped merrily. "If this goes good, we should do it, like, a lot. At least the party part."

Re: Getting to Know You wizard_alive May 19 2007, 01:40:53 UTC

Nita didn't really know any of these people except her sister and Winry, and even though that was good, that was also... bad. Right? Right. And Claire (who seemed to be behind the glitter) was smiling and happy and blonde and Nita just did not fit in with her kind of people.

Listen to me. Her kind of people.

She took a deep breath, and moved closer to the other girl. "... Hey. I'm Nita." Seemed to work, world hadn't ended.

Maybe it would be a good day.

Tracy isn't sure why she's here. She doesn't really know any of these girls, and she's pretty damn sure Evie'd think this was like, the lamest thing ever. She is younger than a lot of the girls here, but she feels like she grew out of this stuff a long time ago.

But still, it's something familiar, like a part of an old life at least part of her misses, and it's not like she has anything better to do.

Re: Getting to Know You unbreakableteen May 19 2007, 00:42:07 UTC

"You came!" Claire chirped, bounding over to her. Tricia? Tracy? Something like that. "I'm so glad you're here!"

Re: Getting to Know You bookof_lies May 19 2007, 00:57:46 UTC

"Uh... yeah," Tracy answers slowly, obviously confused at the other girl's excitement, offering her a bemused smile. "Hey, Claire."

Tracy's good with names. The more popular, the easier it is to remember their name, and even if this girl is a nobody just like everyone else around here, Tracy's pretty good at picking the type out of a crowd. This one? This one looks like a cheerleader.

Re: Getting to Know You unbreakableteen May 19 2007, 01:11:13 UTC

"Hey!" she replied, pointing to the food. "There's snacks and stuff, and that over there is Violet. Did you bring your stuff?" It took her a second, then her smile brightened. Got it. "Tracy?"

Re: Getting to Know You bookof_lies May 19 2007, 01:20:45 UTC

"Yeah, it's over there," she says, nodding to blanket, pillow and pjs piled up in the corner. "Yeah, Tracy. This is really... nice. Did you do it all yourself?" She looks around at the food and decorations, and even though she thinks it might be a little lame, it probably did take the other girl a lot of girl.

Re: Getting to Know You unbreakableteen May 19 2007, 02:33:55 UTC

"Me and Violet," she nodded, pointing to the dark haired girl across the room. "She's never had one, so I thought it'd be fun and, yeah," she shrugged, smiling brightly. "Plus, I'm so tired of only meeting grown ups."

The girl looked quiet - not in a bookworm, hides in corners kind of way, but like she didn't know what she was doing there. She was young, but Veronica still felt a similar way. Smiling a little, she raised an eyebrow at her. "Are we having fun yet?" she asked wryly.

bookof_lies May 19 2007, 01:11:16 UTC

The girl is older. Older than most of the other girls in the room, if not all of them. She's pretty and confident in a way that reminds Tracy that she's still gawky and just barely out of her preteens.

She lets out a bubble of nervous laughter, but she's got enough control to roll her eyes and manage a small, self-deprecating smile. "A blast."

neptune_sleuth May 19 2007, 01:21:24 UTC

"You and me both," Veronica said, eyebrow still arched. The girl had attitude, which was both common and not, and Veronica was offering a more genuine smile before she knew it. "I'm Veronica."
